A traditional first-floor flat above a town-centre shop on Forfar’s East High Street, offering straightforward, entry-level accommodation for investors or buyers willing to refresh. The layout includes a large living room, kitchen, two double bedrooms and a bathroom with shower over bath. Gas central heating and double glazing are already in place.
The building is a mixed-use, mid-terrace stone property with good street visibility and convenient access to shops, transport links and local services. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, supporting rental desirability or home working.
Expect cosmetic updating and possible internal modernisation to bring the flat up to contemporary standards; no rear garden and a constrained footprint are typical of town-centre properties. The immediate area is classified as very deprived with a high proportion of renters, which supports steady rental demand but may deter buyers seeking quieter residential neighbourhoods.
Offered freehold at an entry-level price, this property suits buy-to-let investors seeking central location and footfall, or first-time buyers prepared to refurbish. Material positives (central location, two doubles, good connectivity) are balanced by practical drawbacks (town-centre setting, limited external space and likely internal refurbishment required).
